Survey: Beer Makes Big Impact On Economy In Arizona, US

The latest Beer Serves America study, released by the Beer Institute and the National Beer Wholesalers Association, indicates that the drink and its production continue to tap into a significant part of the U.S. economy.

According to the report, the beer industry contributes more than $252 billion in economic output.

Rob Fullmer, executive director of the Arizona Craft Beer Association, said the impact of brew on the state is similar to the rest of the country.
